May 13.—When ar­ rested u week ago today Edward H. Martin wore an Oxford jjray craven- ette raincoat which has been id< nti- fled as apparel worn liy Nathan Wolff when he left home the day h«1 was murdered. By far this Is the liegt ev­ idence held by tin« state Iti Its prose­ cution of Martin for the murder of the mom y lender, and its Importance overshadows the bloody shirt, which until lust night was regarded as the most clinching evidence utiilnst the ■oldler, lawyer, drug-fiend prisoner. After traversing the entire city Detec­ tives Tlchenor and Howel] secured jiosltlve identification of the raincoat last evening, a clerk with Ben Sell­ ing pointing to the garment as ap­ parel bought from him by Wolff last Feliruary. lailt r the widow of the murdered man identlfletl the coat as having been worn by her husband either the day before or the day of his murder, and the oldest child of the Wolff family said, when shown th« garment: "That's papa's coat." The hanging band and the tags of the manufacturer and haberdasher being torn from the coat, Its Identi­ fication was at first regarded as a task whi.-h would tak. ««any days to omplete, but when the coat cached ine store of B«n S.llng, at Fourth and Morrlsun atreets, Its Identifica­ tion was prompt. Selling happens to lie the only haberdasher In Portland who handles cravenett s of the tex turn of the Incriminating coat, and Edwnrd i’, Eubanks, n snlcsninn with Selling, remembered the purchase of the coat by Wolff on Fcb’iiary 1. Thia datx- nad purchase is corroborated liy Wolff's diary, sh ri'ln mention Is made of the purchase of the apparel. >- - , - - - Z «»*. - I - - FINE 1 \RM <>l' t.EoltGi: \. DOHP.IN Last Wednesday the edit r of the News strolled acre the hill south of Springfield and by chance visited the rnnch of Geo.

To ou" surprise Mr. Dorris has dug ill* tils hop yard entirely and has converted his ranch Into fruit and vegetable raising 'f a lets common nalhre. The first aspara­ gus bed that we have ever seen of any size we saw on this ranch. Mr Itorrls now has In different beds, ov­ er 25 acres, but at the present time lie is only culling about 12 acres, the other not being old enough. Off the 12 acres he Is riow getting from 700 to 1000 pounds dally, and finds n ready market at the very top price, It bringing him 10 cents a pound-ln Portland. Next year he ex. pects to cut about 2000 pounds daily from bis different beds, lie al­ so has 7 acres of strawberries that promise an enormous yield. His crops tire so arranged that, one har­ vest follows another, and as soon as the asparagus crop is out of the way, which lastH through April and May, the berries are ready'to pick. Then comes his cherrit■s of which I1Ô has 30 acres. After this crop is off the peaches ai e next , of which ho hia.B about 25 acres. Then comes his grape harvest, followed by a 25 acre crop of walnuts. Mr. Dorris has his different crops arranged so that one follows the other with a short Inter­ mission between, just long enough to get in readiness. f" ‘ la a typical His ranch for diversified farming and Is one of the largest for its size in Lane county. Mr. Dorris Is now having In his employ fifteen i men. When his fruit comes on it will require I much more help to take care of it. The crops are so arranged that he will have a harvest on eight months in the year and the products of each crop will find a ready market in Hirtlanil and Seattle.—Springfield News. Poughkeepsie, N.
